Quick take

Daiwa mid-range spinning reel with LT lightweight design and advanced drag system for smooth performance.

The Daiwa Exceler LT in size 4000-C is a spinning reel with a light, smooth-running body, an aluminum spool and a CNC-cut aluminum handle. It pairs five ball bearings with Daiwa's ATD drag and weighs about 240 g, so it suits all-day casting with light to medium lures. The 5.2:1 gear ratio picks up line at a steady pace, a good fit for anglers stepping up to a well-equipped spinning reel.
